According to the Rede Brasil Atual portal, the International Court in the Netherlands has already convicted in all its history several world leaders for crimes against humanity, including genocide.

BLO will wait for the final report from the Parliamentary Investigation Commission(PIC) to assess the government´s management on the pathogen to direct their actions to world courts.

According to the site, a lawyers team from the organization is working on the issue and concluded that Bolsonaro did commit such transgressions in the fight against SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus responsible for the disease.

Therefore, there was negligence to acquire vaccines, minimize the seriousness of the pandemic, lack of incentive to adopt restrictive measures, and promote the so-called non-scientifically proven evidence early treatment.

Likewise, he acted indolently during the Amazon crisis, with wildfires consuming vast swaths of rainforests, failing to provide resources, and contributing to the indigenous population genocide.

According to BLO, the President and his government´s omission and irresponsibility have cost Brazil so far 474 thousand deaths due to Covid-19 mismanagement (presently nearing 480 thousand).
